ey there!am using samba4 alpha16 on red hat enterprise linux 6.1. The active
directory is running without any problems. But i am having a problem related
to ntfs sharing. I have shared an ntfs drive from my pc via samba. The probem
is that i am not able to browse my share with any account except for
administrator account.

You did not tell how your ntfs filesystem is mounted.
With ntfs-3g the filesystem is generally mounted with
ownership and permissions disabled, hence all files
appear as owned by root (or a specific user).


 plz note that i can browse an ext3 or 4 partition from any user. The problem
is ONLY with ntfs. I have tried changing permissions from windows itself but
the changes disappear as soon as i click apply. plz help me...... Thanks !

You can get the same ownership and permissions on ntfs as on
ext3/ext4, even Posix ACLs, by mounting with adequate options.
See http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-advanced/ownership-and-permissions/#options

This will however not set the exact same ACLs as if the
ntfs filesystem would have been mounted on the Windows client.
